IMPROVEMENT IN HORSE-COLLARS. i

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

To ali to whom it may concern- Be it known that I, GEORGE Hoeren, ot' New Orleans, in the parish of Orleans and State of Louisiana, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Horse-Collars; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description' of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings making a. part of this specification, in whichlFigure 1 is a plan view ofthe tube which forms the envelope of the collar, drawn out in a straight line.

Figure 2 is a front elevation of the tube stuffed and formed into a collar, and

Figure 3ds a transverse section iu the line :u x, iig'v 2.

This invention consists of a borse-collar formed of a. seamless envelope of some textile fabric, inclosing a suitable stuffing.

v1n the drawings- A is the envelope, consisting of a seamless tube, woven, knit, or otherwise formed of any textile fabric. The tube may b e woven on a. bag-loom in the shape shown in iig. 1, smallest at the ends, which, when joiuedtogether, are atthe top of the collar, gradually enlarging from the ends toward the center, and con- 'cheapness, and durability.

Having thus described my invention, That I claim as new and desire to secure by Let- Iters Patent is- A horse-collar-cover or envelope, consisting of'a' seamless tube formed of a textile fabric, substantially as and for the purpose described.
